A friend of ours could really use your help!

Some of you may have already heard, but long-time member Skitterpop has been ill for quite some time now, and as a result has fallen on some hard times. Mike has been battling Diabetes for a few years and it has left him unable to work and support himself and his wife Karin. If anyone of you knows someone with Diabetes, then you know how debilitating it can be. I don't know Mike outside of the site, but I do know he has been very helpful and generous on many occasions to many people, including myself. When others are in need he is always one of the first to donate, even when he could use the extra cash.

So with that said, I would like to get an auction up and running to help Mike cover some of his medical costs. If anyone would like to donate plugs or send a check to Mike I know he would be greatly appreciative. If we could get some of the builders to throw in some goodies that would be fantastic! You can PM me for my address to send the plugs to. I will take pics when I receive them then post them on here in separate auction threads. I can also give you Mike's address if you would just prefer to send him a check directly. If you have any questions, please feel free to PM me or ask in this thread.

I know Mike is embarrassed about his situation and would never ask for help, but he is one of the good guys and I think we should help him the best we can. Thanks for your support!

forgot to add: got the Bossman's approval on this
